ODESSA — State Representative Brooks Landgraf (R-Odessa) attended the Ector County Hospital District board of directors meeting at Medical Center Hospital on Tuesday to discuss the upcoming session of the Texas Legislature with the hospital’s board members and administrators. 

“Medical Center Health System is the flagship hospital in the Permian Basin,” Landgraf said. “This board and this administration are working diligently to overcome recent challenges, and I think we can be proud of the hospital they’re leading.”

Landgraf, who represents Ector County in the Texas House of Representatives, met with the board to offer any assistance the hospital may need from the state.

“To be a good state representative and a good legislator, I need to meet regularly with local officials here in Ector County to learn about the issues they’re facing and to make sure they’re getting the state resources they need to serve our fellow West Texans,” Landgraf added. 

Landgraf is attending this and other local government meetings across the Permian Basin to prepare for the next session of the Texas Legislature, which convenes at the Texas Capitol in January 2019.
